Stockland Aura has launched its 2024 Community Grants Program for Caloundra South and surrounding areas.
Established with Sunshine Coast Council, the program provides financial support for local groups, offering funding for various community projects and services
Stockland Aura Project Director Josh Sondergeld said Stockland was delighted to once again announce its community grants program to support local organisations on the Sunshine Coast.
“Stockland Aura’s grant funding program is an opportunity for us to partner with passionate community organisations that are driving real change on the Sunshine Coast,” Mr Sondergeld said.
“In previous rounds of this program we have supported a diverse range of groups making a difference in the community – including those protecting our local environment, clubs looking to extend their programs, organisations helping to support the homeless, local community associations and charities supporting kids and teens.
“Previous grant recipients have included Baringa Football Club, Bamboo Projects Education Limited, Gateway Care Limited, Salty Souls Legacy, Kairos Community College and Aura Connected Community Association, just to name a few.”
The 2024 Community Grants Program offers three funding categories with grants of $1,000 up to $5,000, $5,000 up to $10,000 and $10,000 up to $50,000 on offer.
Organisations are encouraged to apply for one-off funding for projects, activities and services that positively contribute to the community; support, grow and build the capacity of local people; provide opportunities for people to come together and embrace sustainability principles in all aspects of project delivery.
Funding is available to community associations, not-for-profit and charitable organisations and social enterprises.
Eligible organisations may include community interest groups, Chambers of Commerce, surf lifesaving clubs, sporting clubs and recreational groups.
Applications for the Stockland Aura Community Grants Program open on 20 September 2024, with applications closing at 5pm AEST on 1 November 2024.
